HBOS is the UK's largest mortgage bank. With the housing market forecast to fall for the next 2 years at least the only way for these shares is down, down, down. Sell now!!Krusty & Phil Madoff, 1990 - 2007:

HBOS is the UK's largest bank
It's not. It is the largest mortgage lender. Which is partly why it has been hit harder than the larger banks such as LloydsTSB and HSBC.only way for these shares is down, down, down.
The p/e is below sector average and they are starting look like good value. I expect the institutions to snap up the shares.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).

Forget the current P/E ratio, that's historical. - the outlook for future earnings is bleakIt's not. It is the largest mortgage lender. Which is partly why it has been hit harder than the larger banks such as LloydsTSB and HSBC.

HBOS are the second largest BTL mortgage lender. They're falling today on the back of Bradford & Bingley's troubles (B&B being the largest BTL lender)."The state is the great fiction by which everybody seeks to live at the expense of everybody else." -- Frederic Bastiat, 1848.0
